SuperBatober 2022 Intro by Mike Maihack

      Mike Maihack is the cartoonist of Cleopatra in Space, a science-fiction adventure story. It started as a webcomic and is now published by Scholastic's Graphix. I first saw some examples of his art on his deviantart site. I bought a few things from his Operation Space Cat store. When the American Library Association Annual Conference was in San Francisco in 2015, I got the chance to meet Mike in person. I saw him at the San Mateo Library in 2018. The sixth and final Cleopatra was published in 2020. Cleopatra in Space is available as an animated series from the Peacock streaming service. One can see the official trailer on YouTube.

      In October 2022, Mike drew a #SuperBatober piece with watercolor every day. Auctions ran on the mikemaihack eBay store and on Mike Maihack Patreon. This piece was offered on Mike’s Patreon.
